CURT 59236 Multi-Function Taillight Converter Kit

The CURT 59236 Multi-Function Taillight Converter is a high-performance electrical solution designed to ensure your trailer lights operate reliably. This converter is built for vehicle owners who need a robust, weather-resistant connection for their trailer's stop, tail, and turn signal lighting systems.

Product Description

Trailer wiring is constantly exposed to harsh conditions like road salt, grime, and moisture, which can lead to electrical failure. The CURT 59236 is engineered to withstand these challenges through its specialized potted construction. By sealing internal components in a watertight enclosure filled with a solid compound, this converter protects against vibrations and moisture. It utilizes advanced surface mount technology (SMT) for efficient operation, lower resistance, and reduced heat generation. This converter is capable of converting 2-wire, 3-wire, or PWM wiring systems into a standard 4-way flat output, ensuring broad compatibility with most trailer lighting setups.

Features & Benefits

• Potted Enclosure: Provides enhanced protection against water, dust, and vibration, ensuring long-term reliability even when mounted on the vehicle's exterior.
• SMT Circuitry: Uses advanced surface-mount technology for better electrical performance, lower heat generation, and an increased lifespan.
• Versatile Conversion: Easily adapts 2-wire, 3-wire, or PWM systems to a standard 4-way flat output for universal trailer connectivity.
• Built-in Protection: Features a microprocessor that senses current to provide rapid response to overloads, short circuits, and thermal issues.
• Low-Voltage Operation: Engineered to function reliably with power as low as seven volts.

Key Points & Helpful Resources

• Performance: Designed with a 7.5 Amp rating for consistent power delivery.
• Installation: Includes a circuit probe to assist with the wiring process.
• Compatibility: Always verify your vehicle’s existing wiring system (2-wire, 3-wire, or PWM) against this converter's capabilities before installation.
• Safety: The converter is specifically designed to detect and react to dangerous electrical conditions to protect your vehicle's wiring.

Product Specifications

Compatibility & Applications

This converter is designed for vehicles requiring an interface between complex factory lighting systems and standard trailer lighting. It is compatible with systems utilizing 2-wire, 3-wire, or PWM wiring. Please verify your vehicle’s specific wiring architecture and connector type before purchase. If you are uncertain about compatibility, please contact MyTruckPoint for assistance.

Why Choose This Product?

The CURT 59236 stands out due to its "potted" design, which is a major advantage for exterior-mounted electronics. Unlike standard converters, the solid internal potting compound prevents the common failures associated with moisture ingress and road vibrations. It provides a professional-grade safety layer through its integrated microprocessing, which monitors your electrical health in real-time.

Ideal For

• Heavy-duty towing applications where reliability is paramount.
• Vehicles with modern PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) lighting systems.
• Trailers requiring a secure 4-way flat output connection.
• Users looking for a durable replacement for standard, non-potted converters.

Installation, Use & Care

Installation requires approximately 1.5 hours and involves splicing into existing vehicle wiring. We recommend professional installation if you are not experienced with automotive electrical work.
